I have not plan for any new phone acquisition in this short future. But seeing the blurry photos really urging my nerve to do so.
Today I found out about 'Mobile Number Postability' at Maxis.
Mobile number portability (MNP) is the freedom to move from one mobile operator to another within the same market, while retaining your mobile number. It allows the customer to change his/her mobile service provider without losing his/her mobile number.I can't wait for this to happen. I think I will get the new phone with the new provider (got some discount there - for example RM999 for a Motorola Q9h!).
MNP is a government directive and regulatory requirement. There will be a Limited Live Trial from 29 August, to early October 2008. MNP will officially be launched in Malaysia from early October 2008 onwards.
